Owner dependency

40/100
Moderate — manageable with handover

Some founder dependency, but not acute. A structured handover period should cover most risk.

FACTORS
  • -11 active directors: Broader management team in place — suggests transferable governance.

Succession & seller-readiness

30/100
Weak signal

Limited succession signal. Not a near-term off-market candidate.

Red flags

1 med · 1 low
2 director resignations in last 12 months
medium

Multiple recent departures can indicate governance disagreement, succession event, or preparation for sale/stress.

Evidence: MAC CUMHAILL, Clare, Dr resigned 2025-09-13; STEENHAGEN, Maarten, Dr resigned 2025-09-13

Multiple registered office changes
low

Multiple address changes in a short period can indicate operational instability or admin disorder.
